Based on 4 reported violent incidents in a population of 2,019.

What the 2024 FBI UCR record shows for Aliceville, AL
Small-count caution
The violent-crime count is small enough that the derived rate is unstable
Aliceville reported 4 violent offences in 2024 against a population of 2,019. At this volume one additional or one fewer report moves the per-100,000 rate noticeably, so the figure is better read as a data point than as a precise measurement, and year-to-year swings here are expected.
Comparable rate records
Aliceville's closest reported-rate comparisons are in the Alabama cohort
The nearest comparable 2024 records to Aliceville's 198.1 violent-crime rate per 100,000 are Scottsboro (200.5), Foley (193.0), Moulton (203.8), Gardendale (192.2). These are same-year agency submissions that pass the same completeness screen, not a claim that the cities have identical conditions. They make the cohort position above checkable against named records instead of a generic state average.
Offense mix
Violent offenses make up an unusually large share of the reported mix
Violent offenses are 26.7% of the 15 Part I offenses reported in Aliceville for 2024, against a median of 13.8% across comparable Alabama cities — a gap of 12.8 points. Offense mix is shaped by which agencies report and how incidents are classified as well as by the underlying offenses, so it describes the reported record rather than a settled difference in conditions.
Property-offense composition
Larceny-theft dominates the property total more than it does across the cohort
Larceny-theft is 90.9% of reported property offenses in Aliceville, against a cohort median of 74.2%. The remainder is burglary (1) and motor vehicle theft (0). Composition differences of this size usually track what kinds of places and property are present in a jurisdiction.
Position in the state cohort
Aliceville sits mid-pack among comparable Alabama cities
At 198.1 reported violent offenses per 100,000 residents in 2024, Aliceville ranks 139 of 263 — above 124 of the 262 other Alabama cities whose 2024 submission passes this site’s completeness test. That is -8.7% against the cohort median of 217.1. Cities that did not report, or that reported implausibly low totals, are excluded from this cohort rather than counted as low-crime.
Property counts dominate Aliceville's FBI UCR Table 8 municipal row. Per-100,000 rates use the reporting-year population on that row; cities that fail the completeness test stay out of rate rankings. A citywide figure rarely describes any single neighbourhood inside the municipal boundary.
Based on 4 reported violent incidents in a population of 2,019. At this volume, one additional or one fewer report can shift the rate and letter grade noticeably; small-city crime counts are inherently more volatile year to year than large-city counts, so treat this grade as a data point, not a precise ranking.
On a small municipal row, small denominators make rates sensitive to a handful of incidents. Figures are reported totals, not neighbourhood advice.
